Not by much. A football weighs in at around 1-2 lb. A grenades is usually 3-4 lb.

A baseball weighs 5 ounces and can be thrown 200 feet pretty easily.
A football weighs almost a pound and can be thrown 30 yards pretty easily.
An M-67 grenade weighs almost a pound. So I'd say 30-40 yards for a non-quarterback.

Which is about right as most grenades in the books list 30-40 yards as max tossing range.
